Sustainability is a pillar of our business

Sustainability factors into everything we do

Sustainability factors into everything we do at Visy - the products we make, our resource recovery cycles and our business, including making our employees safer, our local communities healthier and our customers more profitable.

Limiting our impact on the environment is one of our key missions. We take responsibility for the entire lifespan of our products - from conception through to when they are recycled into something else.

Recycling and waste recovery leaders

We are one of Australia’s biggest and most innovative waste recovery companies

Australia is one of the world’s leading recycling nations, and Visy is proud of its long standing role as one of Australia’s biggest and most innovative waste recovery companies.

Visy has a deep-seated commitment to manufacturing with recycled materials, and has invested years of research, development and technology innovation into making it easier to recover recyclable materials to preserve our earth’s precious resources.

Visy has invested millions of dollars in developing new ways to collect, sort and process recyclable materials and enable the creation of new products from what is discarded by households, schools and businesses.

Across Australia, Visy recovers and recycles materials such as cardboard, paper, plastic, steel, aluminium and glass, which otherwise would of been destined to landfill.
